    We added a '12 JK unlimited Rubicon to the garage line-up. There is something deeply gratifying having two vehicles on BFG MT KM2s with lockers.

    Need to post up some pics. The JKUR is my "minivan" for the family around town and day trips (which includes offroad destinations), but the Tacoma is still on primary camping, weekend, and heavy exploring duty.

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    Nice rigs! Great looking 76, I love the look of my 80 but it is just too nice. One reason I am selling it is because I can't bear to beat her up off road after all that's been done to it. Can't keep both, so I gotta bid farewell to the 80 one of these days to fund the 57 Willys build. By the time that build is done, there wont be much Jeep left in it, mostly have Ford running gear. Going to paint it with bed-liner for durability as well, that way I don't have to be frilly about scratching the paint.

    Traded my last Jeep in when I bought my Taco. Jeeps are my all-time favorite vehicles (including Tacomas :crapstorm:), but I need two vehicles like I need a 2nd craphole. Just couldn't put up with camping in a 2-door with no cargo bed anymore.

    2011 Prerunner and 1998 ZJ. The Taco is all stock, the ZJ is modded. Lift, bumper/winch, tires, etc., etc. Love the Jeep, but one thing wrong after another, just stupid little crap. But such is life with a 14-year old Jeep. Planning on eventually selling the Jeep and buying another Taco, because I still want SOMETHING with 4wd.

    Thanks I try not to wheel the 76 other than the occasional mud hole, it's just too nice to beat up and its my first car so I want to keep it looking nice for a long time. Plus it still has the origional I6, drivetrain, and clutch if I didn't know any better :D.

    Drives like a drunk turtle but the ladies love it :thumbsup:

    I've seen jeeps completley bed lined and I think it looks awesome. I would do it in a heartbeat if the 76's paint went downhill. A must for a weekend wheeler.

    1990 Jeep Wrangler 2.5l that broke down every week and had severe rust issues. Then I bought a 2012 Tacoma =)

    Rebuilding the jeep into a hunting/woods buggy since I can have it down for a period of time now, it was my DD.

    Also someone said something about a Bronco, I have a 69' Bronco sport that has had most of the interior/engine redone. Waiting on money to get a new steering column and then exterior work. Unfortunately this is my girlfriends baby so she wont let me lift/big tires at all =( Gotta buy her a new truck so I can play with the bronco

    1994 Grand Cherokee 5.2 4x4 with 350,000 miles.

    I traded the Overland to my 2012 Tacoma, and the wife traded her Commander to a new Sonata. I sold the 1998 5.9 for almost tripple what I paid for it. And sold the 1994 a few months ago. I loved my Jeeps but it was just time for a change and I really wanted back in a truck. Out of all I miss the 5.9 Limited the most. It was a stock badass. It would smoke the Hemi every time. The 94 was my mountain goat. It never failed at a challenge. I had it on it's side more than once back in the mountains.

    There's 2 of em back there, they have been donors to my Dad's 68 and 72 Broncos. That particular one had the Dana 44 and power steering setup that is under his 72 right now. The other one had a strong running 302 that is under the hood of the 68 right now. For now they are just parts rigs, both are in pretty rough shape to be restored, but it could be done, anything is possible. I wouldn't mind having a early Bronco someday, they are tougher than nails and will climb up anything, great hunting rigs too.
